Red and his party are off to defeat the demon king! There’s just one problem: a cat that keeps getting in the way, particularly by settling down on Red’s lap at the worst possible moments.
Cat on the Hero's Lap is a fantasy-comedy manga by Kosuke Iijima with art by Shiori.
This manga contains examples of the following tropes:
- Berserk Button: Mr. Cat usually backs down from conflict, but he lashes out when another cat tries to take his spot in Red’s lap.
- Face of a Thug: Grinwell’s face is covered in scars, but they came from trying to cuddle with his face too close to cats.
- Formally-Named Pet: Well, for a given value of “pet”. Red eventually starts referring to the cat that keeps following him around as Mr. Cat.
- The Cat Came Back: No matter what they try to do to get rid of him, Mr. Cat will find his way back to Red and his party.
- You Have Researched Breathing: When Grace figures out how to pick up Mr. Cat, it’s treated as learning a new skill.
